It's a fun journey. You'll love it.
Yes, it happens to be true from time to time. There were three Fontaine brothers and a sister who came to Virginia from England, their father having been a Hugenot clergy man who was a refugee from France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. They became the ancestors of many, many Virginian and Southern US families, both notable and ordinary.
